WATER PRESSURE:
A minimum of 20 pounds of water pressure is required for re-
generation valve to operate effectively.
ELECTRICAL FACILITIES:
An uninterrupted alternating current (A/C) supply is
required. Please make sure the voltage supply is compatible with the unit before instal-
lation.
EXISTING PLUMBING:
Condition of existing plumbing should be free from lime
and iron buildup. Piping that is built up heavily with lime and/or iron should be replaced.
LOCATION OF AQUATROL TANK AND DRAIN:
The Aquatrol tank should be locat-
ed close to a drain to prevent air breaks and back flow.
BY-PASS VALVES:
Always provide for the installation of a by-pass valve if unit is not
equipped with one. The Catalytic Carbon Aquatrol is equipped with a bypass valve.
CAUTION:
Water pressure is not to exceed 80 psi, water temperature is not to exceed
110°F (43°C), and the unit cannot be subjected to freezing conditions or direct sunlight.
1) Use a piece of duct tape to cover the top of the distributor tube in the tank. Be sure the
distributor tube is centered in the tank. The distributor tube should be flush with the top of
the tank or no more than 1/4” below flush. Install the supplied funnel and pour the
gravel
in the tank
first
. Each system will ship with gravel and Catalytic Carbon media. Pour the
gravel in the tank first then pour in
all
the Catalytic Carbon media that was shipped in the
tank last. US Water does not ship “extra” media.
